    I think you might have accidentally put the code for at instead of like? ( at is GGU, like is GGC)

  2. Hi Rebecca,

    Good decode. That was my conclusions as well. Hopefully Cara will return soon to let us know if we are right. My decode is below:

    TAC CAA CCA AAC GTA AGT GTT ATA GTC CGG TGA ATC

    AUG GUU GGU UUG CAU UCA CAA UAU CAG GCC ACU UAG (No nonsense bases)

    (start) I at to sleep and dream of eat(ing)good pizza. (stop)

    Mutation… The 9th base “A” should have been “G” to produce “like” instead of “at”.

  3. Sorry for the late response, but yes it was definitely meant to be "i LIKE..." and not "i AT" you both were correct. Darn it, I could've sworn I did it right! But thank you for catching my mistakes!
